That's odd.

Not sure, but 390 visits in four minutes?  It doesn't sound like enough for an attack, though I am not sure the date is good enough to decide that.  If I had to guess, I'd say someone is just tinkering with their system to create a bunch of hits for... who knows why.  Perhaps just to say they can do it.  It is a Friday night.  Not sure if it is a full moon though.  I think the highest number of hits I have had in a whole day is around a hundred.  Maybe a bit higher these last few years.  Generally, I get fifty to sixty pageviews, but only have four to six sites show up as having been the source of the visits.  Lots of things don't make sense.  But 400 visits in a few minutes is, at best, suspicious.  I don't care, the numbers are pretty meaningless as I have learned.  Who knows, maybe that is much more usual, it just doesn't show up.

It is cooling, but that just isn't quite enough.  The dog days of summer have returned.  I'd like to get the kayak rigged and going, so even if I can't hike, I might head out to a lake.  Paddle until I get too hot, then swim, or sink a bit.  Cool, boys and girls, that's all Doom wants.  But it isn't going to happen sitting around.  So... I may just start putting the cover together.  I have the sun protecting tarp in the basket for next month and a smaller rain tarp already purchased.  Why two different items?  Air flow.  I want air to get in and pass through when it is just heat I am fighting.

Yes, tomorrow. I will bust out, when I can, when it isn't too hot, and begin putting the cover together.  There are a lot of things I am unsure about.  There are some trick I may have to figure out on the fly.  Some of the joints may simply not work.  It's going to be a several day process, at the very shortest, if everything I expect could go wrong does go wrong.  If everything goes right, it might be a day, two on the outer edge.  I'll know soon enough.  I might be able to get to it before dawn.  Or maybe not until one of the various meanings of "tomorrow morning".  I'll get to it though.

Later.
